Andres Cuevas is an Australian electrical engineer. He is a professor of engineering at the Australian National University, Canberra.[1] He was named a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2014 for contributions to the science and technological development of silicon solar cells.[2]

Cuevas had studied silicon solar cells at the Technical University of Madrid, where he got his M.Eng. in 1976. He then went to Stanford University, where he was a Fulbright Fellow until 1980, when he graduated with a Ph.D. Between 2007 and 2010, Cuevas served as head of the ANU School of Engineering, and from 2013 to 2014 was deputy dean of the College of Engineering and Information Technology.[3] He is an associate editor of the IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics and the Physica Status Solidi.[4][5]

He was awarded the Becquerel Prize in 2015 by the European Commission for his work on the development and characterisation of silicon solar cells.[6]
